RSO - Shotokan Karate Club

The purpose of the UMass Shotokan Karate Club is to promote the sound mental, physical, and emotional development of its members through the study of traditional Shotokan karate. We are members of the International Shotokan Karate Federation (ISKF) and the East Coast Collegiate Karate Union (ECCKU), with instruction led by Sensei Jared Carver, 5th dan. Membership is open to all UMass students, faculty, and staff, as well as the general Amherst and Five College community.
